my sister is very brave

she is following in brave cressida's footsteps; last week she packed up here stuff and moved to sunny california.
she wants to be an actress, and even though i make tons of fun of her and call her an aspiring waitress, i secretly think it was a brave thing to do.
she is living in LA all by herself without a job and no friends because she really believes that she can make it. she legally changed her name, bought a new car, gave away one of her cats, and drove, literally, across the country. she left her boyfriend and more importantly, our mom behind in the horse capital of the world.

i realize that a lot of us have moved away for school or a job but i don't know if i would be brave enough to just move for nothing but a chance. she did. and tomorrow will mark her one week anniversary into adulthood and possible stardom.

congratulations sis, and well done!!

yep. most of the challange is believing in yourself. you only live once!

Yeah, curious what she changed her name to.

It's funny, when you get here, you think "what was I so scared of?? This isn't that scary."

There are people that do things a million times more brave and aspiring than I've ever done. It makes my little journey look like small potatoes.

Go! Dare to CHASE your dreams and not just dream them. What an amazing luxury we have that we have the OPTION of chasing them at all!
